Oklahoma Congressman Says World Lacks Much of Be
ing Ready for State of
Universal Peace.
U. S. NEEDS MARINE
Advocates Expulsion of Yel low Race and Predicts Per
iod of Unemployment Fol
lowing War.
BY LOUIS FRANCI8 R088. Armed intervention in Mexico with the establishment and maintenance of a stable government by the United States, the construction of a big merchant marine to explore the markets of So-tth . merica and China and the increase of this nation's army and navy, wtr favored by W. H. Murray; Democratic congressman-at-large from Oklahoma, in a hour's speech to a Chautauqua audience of three hundred people last night on "A Wise Foreign Policy." V He discounted universal peace as a human impossibility and analyzed the four propositions which have been submitted with a , view of restoring peace and perpetuating it. Because of the exodus from Europe of immigrants to this country which will follow the war and the lack of supplies here, the representative predicted jobless millions and advised immediate steps to prevent that condition. Exclude Yellow Race. He emphasized the need of excluding the yellow race from America with his reason .based uon the fact that American workmen cannot compete with Chinese and Japanese. He predicted the settlement in Mexico of Japanese if President Wilson continued his "watchful, waiting" policy. Despite the rain which leaked through the tent, Congressman Murray delivered his complete lecture and was . frequently applauded by the people, some Of whom eat beneath the big canopy with umbrellas raised. Rain kept
many persons away. A wise foreign policy, the representative said, should mean the combination of the attitude of peace and friendship by this nation toward all other countries, a large merchant marine for domestic and foreign trade, an efficient army and navy, the preservation of the Monroe Doctrine as a sheet anchor of the republican institutions of the western hemisphere, the protection of American citizens, their lives and property here and abroad; all this with peaceful diplomacy, if possible, but by force, if necessary. Americans Driven Out. In his reference to Mexico and his advocacy of armed intervention as a means of restoring peace there, he asserted the press had overlooked the 30,000 Americans who settled in seven northern colonies but who were robbed, their homes pillaged and burnt by Mexican bandits: These, .he said, were driven to the American side of the border, seeking safety and protection. "These colonists were wholly within their rights in their attempt to stay in Mexico," Congressman Murray declared, "because they settled there under charters and laws of the Mexican government. They had constructed school houses and built roads, were becoming opulent and independent and were entitled to protection. Commenting upon the natural resources of Mexico, Its wealth and the possibilities contained in its soil, Mr. Murray referred to it as the storehouse of the world if it but had an established government. "It is a natural outlet for American
citizens," said the speaker, "and we can pursue a policy which will prevent war and result in little shedding of blOOd. " v :' Send Ships South. , "I would suggest the sending of a fleet of battleships to the Mexican coast and the confiscation of all the money In every customs house, sending the gold and silver back to the United States where It could be deposited in the United States treasury to be later used in the establishing of schools In Mexico. "Then send an army large enough to garrison every town on land and sea in Mexico. The health officers could then be sent in and eradicate the disease which is prevalent in some parts of that country. "In the meantime, I would suggest that every criminal and bandit, and outlaw be apprehended in Mexico and court-martialed. If his crimes deserv
ed such a course, shoot him. "I would set up a stable, military government, American schools in charge of a, half , million American school - teachers, and start ' a 'nationwide campaign to encourage American citizens to settle in Mexico. "After a generation, the United States could haul down and remove its flag and peace would be in Mexico."-. - a X: I Need Merchant Marine. Xo one, more than the farmer, declared Mr. Murray, was more in need Of the United States possessing a big merchant marine, because his markets are the world markets. He recommended to the citizens at large the purchase of the two hundred interned ships in the harbors of this country. Their purchase would be a good, business investment, he said, because at this time they can be bought at a reasonably low price. "If we succeed in obtaining a merchant marine large enough to carry on trade with South America and
China, it could be operated under differentiating duty, which means a protective duty," said Mr. Murray. "Here is an example of how that duty would work out: Two ships, one American and one foreign, come into an American port. Suppose the tariff
duty to be fifty per cent on the goods. Collect the fifty per cent duty on the foreign ship but reduce the duty on the American ship to thirty-five per cent. The result is that the American can haul for fifteen per cent less and can compete with a foreign merchant
trade. "Some Republicans have proposed a bounty from the treasury coming from an appropriation by congress wherein the American ship receives a bounty to enable it to compete with the foreign vessels. This policy, I think, unwise, in that it would give room for favoritism and permit of the establishment of a ship trust among the owners of the larger vessels." Man Prepares for War. As reasons for his belief that the world had not reached the period of universal peace, the speaker declared the whole philosophy of man in race and religious prejudices, in economic pressure for existence and in a few cases for liberty, showed that throughout the ages, man has always thought he had universal peace when, instead, like the situation prior to the outbreak of the European war, it was merely an armed armistice. Each step of man has been for war, he said. The present war was likened to other conflicts which had preceded it in that it was the "old, old stOry." "America can become the beaconlight or the stumbling block in the steps of civilization after this war." Mr. Murray argued, "because we are the one great Christian nation left which was founded upon the philosophy of religion. "We have not reached the period of universal peace. Let me analyze the four propositions which have been sug- j gested as means through r-hich peace j
can be secure for the world. These propositions are first, disarmament; second. Mr. Bryan's plan to wait a
year before seeking a settlement of difficulties by armed force; third, ar
bitration, and fourth, tne proposed iteration of nations of the world. "Men can fight without weapons. History has shown that they did fight without weapons, at one time with only bows and arrows, so dlsarment ould : not mean an insurance against war, would not mean peace. Would Provide Preparation. . r.Tf Bryan's Plan was followed, the year's -time, ostensibly consumed in the thoughtful consideration of the
armaments of each nation, would re
ally mean the increasing, perhaps secretly, of the armies and navies of the nations involved. The year would provide for a strengthening of the armament and better preparation for war. "Arbitration serves in tiems of peace as a means of arbitrating those matters which can be submitted to arbitration. But we could not submit our form of government or our Monroe Doctrine to arbitration. s "A federation of the world means representatives of each nation sitting in counsel in one court. It would mean a giving up of a portion of our national power and our soldiers under duty, bound to obey the rules of the court even if it meant action against our own nation. Christianity and the white race is in the minority. Wouldn't it be unwise to voice the secret methods of our national policy in the presence of a race wholly Inconsistent with ours?" ,:.

Many campera who started the season without floors in their tents, have undergone a change of heart.
